Críticas:

Stripped Bare is a classy genre piece - solid, polished, back-to-basics chick lit. More sane, touching and balanced than you'd imagine. Turner reveals a good ear for dialogue and some unexpected turns of phrase (Evening Standard)

'This is a cosy, competent novel...Turner does more than just make over a rackety old plot, adding her own barbed asides on middle-aged Englishmen and the world of television, as well as some eccentric similes' Daily Mail 24/1/03 (Daily Mail)

Reseña del editor:

Three women in a bate:

Beth - director of 'On the House', a prime-time homes and gardens makeover show. It's bad enough juggling the egos of neurotic tv presenters, sex-mad handymen and furious home owners, without the additional pressure from on-high to improve ratings. Tired and stressed (not to mention distressed), at home Beth needs support. So why does her husband have to work late every evening, leaving her, literally, holding the baby?

Siobhan - assistant producer of 'On the House'. On the surface, she's gorgeous and confident, with an exciting love life. But in reality, when it comes to men, she has a kamikaze instinct - and her affair with Simon (married, two children) is more off than on.

Olivia - glamorous bohemian wardrobe designer of 'On the House'. Mother of four children, she has the perfect modern marriage (including house husband). So why is Colin spending more time with Nigel, the health visitor, than with his Agent Provocateured wife?

Three women, three friends, many, many problems. Just like life really.
